Marc Gravelle of the Peterborough OPP personally told me that "women have no business in policing" and "any woman who gets into policing does so because she has a mental disability" This officer's viewpoints are only 30 years or more out of touch with a modern Canadian society.

This officer also discriminates against people because of their family name. He also feels it is alright to harass them and violate their chartered rights in an attempt to get evidence against them. This officer, like many of the Peterborough OPP, feel they are above the law and that they do not have to answer to anyone (well up to this point of time anyway).I do not understand why this officer has a problem with women being on the force. He is on the force isn't she?

Constable Marcel (Marc) Gravelle (badge # 12091) is a liar. I am making this assertion with 100% accountability to my words. He lied about me to his supervisors and he lied to me when I asked him about it. I remember very vividly how I ran into him in the Gold's GYM in Peterborough in August 2008 and I asked him face-to-face if he said anything about me to anyone to which he replied without blinking an eye, 'No, I did not say anything'. I remember the exact place in the gym, the stations we were standing by and our relative positions and his emotionless facial expression. I was shocked when I discovered the truth nearly three and a half years later that it was him all along that lied about me and defamed me.

Aside from that Constable Marc Gravelle also has a reputation of being a hypocrite among members of the Peterborough OPP. He prides himself on arresting many people. His shift mates used to say that he gets by with his reports yet knows how to sniff stuff around. He wanted to be a detective. I do not know if he became one. Rumor even had it that he lied to his own brother Constable Mike Gravelle (badge # 11788) about an application to the Emergence Response Team back in 2009. There was a limited number of ERT positions and Marc Gravelle told his brother Mike Gravelle that he was not going to apply to give Mike a higher chance of succeeding. Yet Marc applied secretly and when it became known the brothers did not speak for a long time.

One should be cautious when having dealings with this officer for if he can readily lie within a protected environment (within the policing circles) what is stopping him from lying in his interaction with the public.
